Agreed. I was at that game, way up stairs, that play came right up under our section. Awesome. One of my greatest days ever as a Jet fan. :up: Nice. Killed us once as a Brown, after leaving us. I want to say 1984. Love it.
It was a 1983 game. The Browns won 10-7. Jones scored the first points on a 32-yard pass from Brian Sipe. Sipe and Jones never played in the NFL again after that season.
New Jersey Generals quarterbacks- 1983- Bobby Scott (Archie Manning's backup from 1973-81) 1984- Brian Sipe 1985- Doug Flutie 1986- Jim Kelly (after the merge with Houston, he would have been the starter, but the league folded)
Sorry but I have to catch up, I missed my favorite Jet, Lou Piccone #89 Rich Caster #88 was one of the first deep threat TE's, but unfortunately had hands of steel, and let Joe Willie down many times. Pete Lammons #87
Hey Junc, you're getting greedy now, leave some for the rest of us....by the way I'll never recover from Alex Van Dyke's fumble in the AFC championship game in '98, we were only down 10 points with most of the 4th quarter left and he fumbled on the Broncos 26, he lived about 5 blocks from me at the time and I wanted to go over his house and voice my displeasure with him, 1 catch, 1 fumble...yuck!!!! Verlon Biggs #86
Sorry. I had been leaving certain players but I liked the Verlon Biggs photo I found. That Van Dyke fumble was the death blow BUT we hadn't been able to score all game, our lone TD was off a blocked punt inside the Denver 5. We moved it all game long but just shot ourselves in the foot time after time after time. You cannot turn it over 6 times and beat a team as good as Denver was. If we had just 3 TOs we have a great chance to win, I think we were the better team.
Dave Meggett killed us too, letting every KO and punt hit the ground, he killed our field position....but also guys that never fumble like Keith Byars and Curtis Martin coughed it up...the shame was Testeverde was on that day and I really thought we were better than them....the first half Bellicheck's defensive game plan was amazing, Cascadden had 2 sacks and Elway looked bewildered, but that long pass down the middle to MaCaffrey, that Victor Green blew the coverage on changed the momentum of the whole game....
The Byars fumble was the worst, we would have had a 1st down inside the Broncos 20. The Curtis fumble I think was near midfield so it wasn't as bad. Hall also missed a chip shot(I know it was very windy but Elam didn't have any problems) BUT we did stop Den on downs inside the 5 so we both missed chances in the first half. The play that changed the game was right after the Curtis TD, the bomb to McCaffery. That set up Denver's first TD then the Meggett play happened on the ensuing KO and it was all downhill from there.
